Trying to get into sport/action sport video games?

January 29th, 2013 2 comments

Never been too big a fan of this genre aside from ssx, and i’m trying to get into it. I put the Action Sports game at a higher priority than just sport games though. Any suggestions to get me started.

Play sports in real life and you’ll be K.

I would definately check out Modern Warfare 2 when it comes out in November. Also, there is in fact a painballing game called NPPL Championship Paintball 2009, however I have not played it myself. Perhaps rent it to check it out before you make a purchase.

Camera to take action shot both indoor and out door?

January 27th, 2013 1 comment

I am looking for a good camera to take fast action shot basically to use during games like basketball, volleyball, football etc. The camera must be able to take indoor sport photo as well. Please help me out. Thank you.

Good quality action photos in low light situations means you need a DSLR – no P&S will really perform well in those circumstances.
Outdoors on a bright day just about any camera will do a reasonable job.

Is there less diversity of video gane styles now than there was 12 years ago?

January 23rd, 2013 2 comments

i think so. it seems to be mainly fps and action adventure games now. but back in the day, there were combat flight sims, rpg (3 or 4 diff styles) as well as the great games of sierra, real time and turn based strategy etc, etc, etc.

just seems like a shame that most of todays games look/play almost exactly the same.

Not all of them. FPS games and sports games all look very similar obviously, but you find more diversity if you take the time to look at every games released in the last 5 years. It’s just because FPS games are the most popular right now and we are seeing a flood of them.

can you use an Xbox controller for a PC?

January 21st, 2013 6 comments

I ask because I have just bought PES 2008 (pc edition) but my controller which I bought from GAME doesn’t use the regular buttons to operate the game e.g X is for through ball.

Will I have more sucess with a Xbox controller?

Yes, the Xbox 360 controller can be used in Windows (XP SP2 or later, incl. Vista).

The connector for a Wired XBox 360 controller is a standard USB 2.0 connector and can be plugged in and will be recognised by Plug & Play (Windows Update will install the latest drivers the next time you run it).

For an Xbox 360 Wireless controller you need a ‘Receiver’ – basically a USB Dongle that plugs into your PC to communicate correctly with XBox Wireless Equipment.

Most newer PC action / sports games (and all Games for Windows titles) should have support for the XBox 360 Controller Layout. I believe PES 2008 has a controller profile already for the the Controller.

Older Games that you can ‘remap’ your Controller can be used to remap to buttons on the XBox Controller – but some of the buttons (e.g. the Triggers) may not be possible to assign to functions.

Microsoft do sell a packaged "XBox 360 Controller for Windows" – but this is just a bog standard XBox 360 controller with the Windows drivers on CD – just buying a standard 360 controller and plugging it in, then going to Windows Update does the same thing – and is much easier to find.

What is your favorite Playstation console of all time?

January 11th, 2013 19 comments

PS, PSone, pocket station, PS2, PSX, PSP, PS3

And what is your favourite part of that console?
@Braxton: PS=wider, PSone=less wide

The PlayStation 2. And not because I own one… It’s because of the amazing game library. So many games, from all kinds, it is just the perfect console.

I mean, let’s face it:

Wii = Mostly family and kid friendly games.

Xbox 360 = Mostly Blood, gore, action, and shooting.

PlayStation 3 = Mostly shooting, action, and blood (just like Xbox 360).

PC = Lots of online games, shooting, action, and some calssics.

PlayStation 2 = TONS of games from each category. Sports, "childish", action, shooting, blood & gore, racing, music, RPG’s, fighting, etc.

The PS3 and Xbox 360 and Wii do contain some games from each category, but not like the PS2. While the Wii, Xbox 360, and PS3 are mostly focusing on a couple categorys, the PS2 has a huge selection from each category.

It’s convenient, since you don’t have to choose whether you want kid friendly games if you have kids and you care about them more than yourself, or action if you like action, shooting if you like it, etc. Basically, from the PS2, you can enjoy all of them. If I would just own my Wii, I would definitely sell it by now. Since it barely contains shooting and action games, and mostly kid friendly games. If I would just own a PS3/Xbox 360, I would have a problem since it would lack some kid friendly/family games.

In PS2, I have tons of games, from tons of categories. Plus it makes a great DVD player.

Sorry if I kind of went off-topic when I talked about other consoles, I just wanted to show why I prefer the PS2 over ANY console.

I have 100 dollars to spend on Xbox 360 games at gamestop, what new games are good out there?

Playing a good FPS. Would you prefer a console controller or keyboard and mouse?

January 3rd, 2013 3 comments

I’ve tried playing FPS like Halo with the xbox controller. It’s not as accurate or effective as using a keyboard and mouse. The design of the mouse is such that you can accurately aim and fire with it , as opposed to a 360 controller where you roll your thumb , the reticule hops all over the place , can’t aim.

The controller’s good for sports games , and action games…but if you’re trying to aim with that dumb 360 stick forget about it , it’s inaccurate as fuck. Your thoughts.

If your talking about the 360 controller specifically then I’d have to say that I don’t like the design of that controller it just feels uncomfortable in my hands and I don’t like the location of the left analogue stick and directional pad. But I do prefer a good console controller over a keyboard and mouse.
